		But, she explains, "Butser Hill is internationally important for its yew trees, as well as for its lowland chalk grassland, which is one of Britain's rarest and most threatened habitats".
		The Roesel's bush cricket has also been sighted on Butser Hill and the habitat is a perfect breeding site for birds such as green woodpeckers and skylark.
		Butser Hill became an organic site in June 2003, and the extra land will help to buffer it from the fertilisers and pesticides used on adjacent farms.

		In 1972, an experimental centre was set up on Butser Hill, on land provided by Hampshire county council.
		His work at Butser revolutionised the way in which the pre-Roman Iron Age economy was perceived, and is detailed in his book Iron Age Farm: The Butser Experiment (1979), contributions to collections, and papers published both in Britain and abroad.

	Welcome to the DRI Forum - green laning in Sussex, Surrey, Kent
		The areas around East Meon/Butser Hill and Petersfield are very good, but there are miles more lanes in all directions, so many in fact that after ten years I'm still being introduced to routes I knew nothing about when I occasionally tag along with a group of riders I've met whilst out and about.
		I had to work the bike back down the hill bracing my feet against the fence posts on the left hand side until the path widened enough for me to turn the bike around.
		If you've only ridden the hill this year when it was dry, then you wouldn'd really understand why even riders who've ridden it many-many times before get "butterflies" every time they approach it and look up at that narrow white ribbon of chalk stretching away before them.

		As the chalk layer is generally tilted, chalk downland formations typically have a marked scarp slope on one side, which is very steep, and a dip slope on the other, which is much shallower.
		Chalk deposits are very porous, so the height of the water table in chalk hills rises in winter and falls in summer.
		This is demonstrated very clearly beneath the scarp of the White Horse Hills, above the Vale of White Horse.

	Hill Walking in South East England
		Granted the North and South Downs will not provide the wilderness experiance and may of the hills can be run up in less that half an hour but these minor points miss the fact that there are hills just waiting to be climbed.
		We could have lied and said that we chose this Hill because of the long man being carved in to the side of it signifying something or other but no, there was no reason to start here.
		There is no reason to visit the top of the hill, there is no footpath that goes near it and the view of a couple of radio masts is not exactly awe inspiring.

		The three hills within the Park are all formed of chalk which was deposited in the upper cretaceous period approximately one hundred million years ago.
		The distinctive valleys (combes) found on Butser were shaped much later during the last ice age.
		The potential of the combination of downland and woodland was realised in 1966 when Hampshire County Council purchased Butser Hill, and in 1976 the new partnership was formed and the Country Park was formally opened by Her Majesty the Queen.

	Walk #710: South Downs Way: Wether Down to Cocking
		I was tempted to nip up to the trig pillar at the top of the hill by the large radio mast, but I decided to press on as the path descended down a lovely grassy slope towards the A3(T).
		The path became quieter when I reached the top of the hill, and I was disappointed to see that the views were blocked out by the trees that surrounded the path.
		The road ended and the sound of a train passing through the tunnel under the hill reverberated through the air as I stood admiring the views.

	Welcome to the DRI Forum
		Dirt Squirt you're right about the trail, you come out just before the metalled road goes into the car park at the top of Butser Hill, and Two Wheels there is an alternative easier route up the hill which joins the really steep climb about halfway up and comes out at the same place.
		Alternatively turn right at the bottom of the Butser Hill trail and follow the road around until you find the trail that leads to the bottom of the difficult climb up the hill again.
		Sometimes I avoid Butser just because if I'm there and I don't try the hill I feel that I've chickened out, yet I know that if conditions aren't right I might get my self into trouble and as I ride on my own usually trouble is something I try to avoid!

		With Marianne decreeing "Picnic on Butser Hill" before our journey home on Saturday 4th August 2007, we had an opportunity to partly redress this.
		Jimmy then navigated us on a long drive through Bishops Waltham, and eventually up to the car park on Butser Hill (£1 for all day parking).
		We collected all the radio stuff and picnic stuff and climbed the remainder of the hill (the car park is pretty high up!) to a large firm grassy area just before (and about 5m lower than) the true summit.
